Leila (justsortofreading) I was actually just about to start a topic about trivia :D

I love it because it's so fun, at least when it goes well. My best streak is 35 but I think that's because the several 'popular' novels (many questions in other words) are either my favourites or novels that I spent a reasonable amount of time analyzing in school. I'm really bad though at the 'general' quiz (i.e not about my books)

It's also fun to add questions but hard to come up with questions because even though a lot of details of several books, it's hard to formulate questions and 'wrong answers' :P

Maria (minks05) | 481 comments haha--brenda, i'm with you! our friends refuse to play Trivia Pursuit against my husband and i because between the two of us, we know the most innane, obscure bits of information. it's rather fun, actually!!

I too am full of useless information. Maria if you play trivia pursuit enough you'll know all the answers. I need to get a different version because it's not challenging anymore.

What trivia thing are you talking about?


message 6: by Chloe (new)

Chloe (countessofblooms) | 1128 comments The Never-Ending Trivia Quiz on Goodreads, Lori. My best streak so far is 64 in a row. Then I get 50 questions in a row about some stupid romance series that no one in their right mind would know about and it all gets shot to hell. I lost quite a few days to the trivia game when it first started up. I haven't played it in quite a while though, I should give it another go.

Kellie (acountkel) | 992 comments That thing is addicting.
I can't start it because I can't stop.
I'm about 50% right...

Jessica | 1000 comments I really only play trivia when TNBBC is kind of slow...so not very often! It is addicting once you get started though!

Kristie (spedkristie) my best streak is 9



message 10: by [deleted user] (new)

Wow Logan! You Rock! My best I think is 20. The worst is how addicting it is!

Jeane (icegini) | 4891 comments Lori her profile made me find out about that trivia quizz, then I found out I am not good at it but that it is addictive, now I am trying to stay away from it because I know I will get addicted to it again.


message 13: by Petra X (new)

Petra X (petra-x) I gave up playing it because a couple of users seem to go through a book, usually teenage or fantasy I think, as they read it and ask a question for every page. Drives me mad so I gave it up but I think my best streak was 17 (not very good).


JG (Introverted Reader) I think my best streak is 12. I wish I'd get some of those Twilight questions everyone keeps fussing about over in the Feedback group! I keep getting questions from this one guy who's posted over 500 questions from books? poetry? drama? I don't even know which it is, so you know I've never heard of them! I'm sure they're very literary books, but give me something else for a change!

Sorry, I didn't really mean to rant there.

Jeane (icegini) | 4891 comments Shouldn't have gone chekking it: 4! :-)))(((

JG just browse the trivia you'll get the twilight questions. I have only read the first three chapters but a lot of the questions repeat themselves therefore it's really easy to get them right. You can also only do trivia from books you've read but it pulls up books on your TBR list too. I like the browse option it's cool.
